“I would say, on the basis of having observe a thousand people in the experiment and having my own intuition shaped and informed by these experiments, that if a system of death camps were set up in the United States of the sort we had seen in Nazi Germany, one would find sufficient personnel for those camps in any medium-sized American town.” PeopleIfsStatesMy OwnUnitedUnited StatesThousandBasesTownsIntuitionExperimentsMediumsSufficientGermanyCampsNaziPersonnelNazi GermanyDeath Camps Author:Stanley Milgram
“We should strengthen the faith of our people in their own future, the faith of every Canadian in Canada, and of every province in its sister province. This faith wrongs no one; burdens no one; menaces no one; dishonors no one; and, as it was said of old, faith moves mountains, so I venture reverently to express my own belief that if the difficulties of our future as a dominion were as high as the peaks of the Alps or Andes, yet that the pure patriotic faith of a united people would be all sufficient to overcome and ultimately to triumph over all such difficulties.” PeopleIfsShouldSaidWould BeMovingBeliefMy OwnUnitedPureMountainOvercomingDifficultyBurdenTriumphSufficientCanadaPatrioticOur FutureVentureDominionProvincesMenaceDishonorMove MountainsAlps Author:Thomas D'Arcy McGee

“United Features had given me a development contract, which meant I was to work exclusively with them and rather than completing everything on my own and turning it in to them and having it rejected or accepted, I was working much more directly with the syndicate, turning in smaller batches much more frequently, and getting comments on them. The idea was that they would help me develop the strip and then, assuming that they liked it, it would flow into a normal contract for syndication.” IdeasHelpingGivenMy OwnUnitedDevelopmentNormalFlowAssumingAcceptedFeaturesHelp MeContractsCommentRejectedCompletingSyndicate Author:Bill Watterson
